RRT use in CICU patients with cardiogenic shock = higher in-hospital & 1-year mortality.

🚨 CRRT patients:
📉 56% in-hospital mortality
📉 <30% 1-year survival
⚠️ Only 1 in 5 survive 1 year free from dialysis

This study underscores the prognostic weight of AKI and RRT modality.

🧠 Patients wanted more info on risks, esp. insurance
📉 Testing was easy, but emotionally taxing
🤝Clear need for better consent, counseling & support.
